Community Health Center of Southeast Kansas

Absolutely horrid. They just Willy nilly reschedule people , don't even check if the day works with them, or even schedule them with their actual doctor or therapist. AND then have the gall to tell me I owe them money for services Yea until your nurse calls and apologizes , you can spend your massive grants on my doctor's appointments, and when I find out what's wrong with me ,you can pay m even more with a negligence lawsuit.

My DOCTOR asked if I wanted COVID tested and I said yes . My DOCTOR said I could go to my next appointment and then leave the moment the finished taking my test. For some reason my NURSE, decided to cancel my next appointment and try to make me wait in the room despite what my DOCTOR told me, and now I have to wait for another month for an appointment I've already had to wait multiple months for. Needless to say, I'm not paying my bill, send it to my nurse

My 19 year old college student got sick over the weekend. They "tested" for strep. Then refused to administer any other tests and requested she go to the hospital. They scared her to death with their misdiagnosis, so I went down to pick her up. She was tested two days later and confirmed to have Strep. Got her on antibiotics and she's doing much better. Complete lack of care and professionalism.

The dental and mental health departments are complete garbage and need an overhaul. The only thing I like about this place are the primary care physicians, all the ones I've had have been great. The dental work is just bad quality. The mental health is expensive and about as useful as googling and taking a random diagnostic survey. To those who are currently patients of the mental health clinic, the reason your appointments are scheduled 3 months away is because they try to force patients like me, who is fine with current medication/dosage(non-narcotic), to come in multiple times a year to sit there and say "ya everythings going great" so they can make that quick and easy $$ instead of getting people who actually need help in quicker. And no it's not a requirement to be seen multiple times a year, I've switched doctors and am now only required to see them ONCE a year.

My story is a little long, but I really want to give Community Health the props they deserve. I really thought I was a lost cause and my life was going to be a never-ending cycle of suffering. I’ve had life-altering mental health problems for a decade now. My primary care physician at the time only took it seriously when I had a nervous breakdown and couldn’t take it anymore. That was after several years of trying to get help and being brushed off. In 2020, my depression became so bad that I no longer had anxiety. I considered driving my car into a tree every day. Eventually I took an online mental health screening at my husband’s insistence, which convinced me to seek a specialist’s help. I reached out to a few clinics around the Four State area and chose CHC. I saw Kayla, a psych NP, and one of their counselors, Charissa. Kayla believed what I told her from the beginning and I got diagnoses that thoroughly explained what I was experiencing, along with proper medication. Charissa helped me heal a lot of inner turmoil in therapy, which lets me live a much more relaxed, happy life. A year of therapy and good medicine has truly given me my life back. I didn’t think it was possible for me to feel some semblance of normalcy, but these ladies made it happen. Let me tell you, there is no shame in getting help if you have mental illness! Community Health has been nothing but great in supporting my healing.

Just love my new Doctor there Shannon Barus. She's kind, and caring, and has a great disposition about her. And she does her job well. That Doc in Arma needs to take some lessons on doctors' office manners. And drop the God complex. Nowadays Doctors get paid and don't even touch you the nurses do all that. For as long as I've been alive I think I know how my body ticks. To withhold a patient's meds that are not to be cold-stopped without having major repercussions and Cause serious side-effects.
